Tiffany Lange’s Monsters and Moons present a compelling exploration of archetypes through character-based sculpture. In this new body of work, Lange creates unorthodox beings informed by folklore, personal narrative, and spiritual symbolism. Oscillating between protector and threat, comfort and control, these figures reveal the fluid and often ambiguous nature of power and intention. 
Time’s Breath: An Odyssey in Words and Pictures, a new exhibition of paintings and works on paper by Deborah Brown English, will open at Creative Alliance in March. English’s debut illustrated novel, Time’s Breath: An Odyssey in Words and Pictureswhich also serves as a catalogue for the exhibition, was published to rave reviews in September.

Some writers are introverts, while others are willing to jump right in. However, all writers have one thing in common: writer’s block. During this unconventional detox, we’ll provide various exercises to break the dreaded block we all face. Did someone say acapella singers? A photo-walking tour? Yes, we did. We'll use the unconventional to break a habit, and establish a new one to help you move through (or to) the next act, chapter, page, or phase of your draft. The series will commence with a group project to be shared with the class and inspire others. Furthermore, we'll encourage writers to form an alliance, as writing solo is never fun! So, what are you waiting for? It's time for a detox! 
Bharatnatyam is one of the oldest dance forms in India and the root of Indian dance. Bharatanatyam weaves emotions, “Bhava”, with complex footwork, “Nritta”, to depict our cultural stories through dance, “Natya.” The form has a rich tradition of narrative elements that are intertwined in different aspects of our performances. Abhinaya is the art of expression in Bharatanatyam. It involves facial expressions, eye movements, and body language to portray the emotions and narrative of a dance piece. Through abhinaya, dancers bring characters and their stories to life, evoking a range of emotions in the audience. |
